For a sleek, modern take on winter warmth, the funnel neck coat is a true game changer and a sophisticated addition to your cold-weather collection. This style features a high, structured collar that stands straight up, often cinching tightly at the neck, eliminating the need for a scarf while providing excellent insulation against biting wind. Funnel neck coats usually boast clean lines and minimal hardware, emphasizing a polished, architectural silhouette that instantly elevates any outfit, making it a perfect choice for commuting or a stylish evening out.
